Monterey Heights Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 2,049 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Monterey Heights maps to a single census tract in Euclid, OH, population 2,049. The Eviction Risk Score is 6/10, in the Elevated tier. 60% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Euclid rate of 30.0%.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10. The severe-burden share is 28%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. 20.6% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

At $1,303 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of Euclid commands. The poverty rate is 28%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Food insecurity affects 31.8% of adults, 14.0 points above the national rate. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10. The filing record is not thin: 196 evictions logged in this tract.

On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.1/10. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 13.0% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 8.9% in 2016 against a 13.0% peak. That places it #1 of 15 neighborhoods in Euclid.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
